June 10: Service Learning Day
Join the Rail River Folk School and the BSU Sustainability Office for an exciting work day. The groups have several outdoor projects to work on including gardening, weeding and other permaculture installations. In addition to helping the center complete projects that need to be done around the facility, participants can learn from local landscaping and gardening buffs.

Sustainable Tuesdays are a partnership between Bemidji State’s Sustainability Office, the Indigenous Environmental Network, Minnesota GreenCorps and the Rail River Folk School. The Sustainable Tuesdays presentations aim to draw upon the strengths of the region’s diversity to create a sustainable Bemidji.
